I work full time and changed departments 5 weeks ago and have been sooo busy that I've been working till 5/5.30 then when I get home I have been falling asleep on the sofa rather than spending the only 2 hours I have with dd before her bedtime.
I felt worse tonight as she woke me up with a kiss saying "wake up mummy - not bedtime yet".

I am on flexi time but trying to juggle home and work while this new role is getting going is really hard work. I am managing 6 staff and I was literally begged to take them on and to say they are a challenge is an understatement. None of them get on together. 1 is in debt, 1 is an alcoholic, 1 has alcohol problems in their imediate family, they are 30 days behind with their work and so it goes on.....sorry...will try and finish early tomorrow.

You are a super woman!

I work part time (2 days) and find that hard going so you must be absolutely shattered. As well as emotionally torn i guess? (not wanting to make you feel worse or anything X)

ANyway, no words of wisdom except hang in there and if you ever need to chat then please let me know XX
